Panic surged as I forced the bus to stop. Inside, the kids were noisy, laughing except the girl, Chelsea, who was struggling to breathe. She was having an asthma attack, but her inhaler was missing. I searched through the children\u2019s backpacks and found it in a boy\u2019s bag. He said it was \u201cjust a joke.\u201d I was furious. Helping Chelsea use her inhaler, I watched her color return.<\/p>\n
The driver apologized, admitting he hadn\u2019t noticed the emergency amid the chaos. Chelsea thanked me softly, and I promised to stay with her until she got home. At her stop, her parents were grateful and angry at the driver and the other kids.<\/p>\n
Mrs. Stewart, Chelsea\u2019s mother, offered me a ride and then a surprising opportunity: a job interview at their family business. That night, I told Mom everything. For the first time in weeks, hope filled my heart. When God closes one door, another opens and sometimes it leads to places you never expected<\/p>\n
